The pungent smell of fresh blood emanated from the white mist.
Moments later,
the white mist dispersed, revealing dozens of Awakened lying on the ground.
Of course, they were not dead, merely injured.
Qi Lianyun was lightly wounded, after all, he was an SS-class Awakened with immense power, blocking many of the previous attacks.
In the center of the field,
only the distressed screams of the youth in the baseball cap could be heard.
Water counters fire, it was true,
but that was only against Awakened of the same level.
How could his ability level be compared to Ma Wang's?
Furthermore,
Water Shield Technique was not a high-level esoteric art, and naturally could not withstand Ma Wang's attack.
Qi Lianyun glanced at him without a word.
Although the baseball cap youth was the second-in-command, they were not close friends or family. He would not intervene for the sake of the other.
At this moment, the baseball cap youth's face was completely burned, looking rather tragic.
"Two, we did not intentionally target you. We beg you to spare our lives!"
Qi Lianyun stood up and cupped his fists,
but he was already prepared to flee.
They had only formed a temporary team, with no deep emotional bonds. It was natural to scatter in the face of disaster.
Moreover,
those dozen or so slashes during the white mist must have come from the youth with the saber.
Therefore, Qi Lianyun would not risk his life for them!
And whether they could win was still unknown.
Ma Wang stepped forward,
looking down at the baseball cap youth.
Yesterday, he had been scorned and bullied by his beloved little white horse, and was filled with pent-up rage with nowhere to vent.
Today, someone actually wanted to eat him?
Preposterous!
I, Old Ma, was born between heaven and earth, how could I be bullied by these nobodies?
Ah~~~
The baseball cap youth cried out.
He knew he had offended a powerful being, but the situation had come to this. He could only attack first.
A water column instantly condensed and shot towards Ma Wang.
The result was obvious; it was instantly shattered by Ma Wang, who then stomped his hoof on the youth's forehead...
However, at this very moment,
several people in the crowd decisively raised their guns and aimed at Ma Wang.
"Die!"
They shouted in unison.
At such close range, even Ma Wang could not dodge in time!
They were the baseball cap youth's trusted subordinates,
but at this moment, they sought revenge and to feast on meat!
Deception and intrigue were common in the apocalypse.
Boom!
The instant they raised their guns,
a powerful pressure descended, like a mountain pressing down on everyone's heads.
S-class Esoteric Art - Dragon's Might!
In an instant,
over a dozen people rolled their eyes and fainted on the spot!
Even the SS-class Qi Lianyun immediately buckled at the knees and fell to the ground!
Cold sweat streamed down his forehead!
"What...what kind of ability is this?"
Qi Lianyun felt he could barely endure it, feeling on the verge of fainting.
He looked up,
and saw the man holding the long saber standing there, his pair of golden vertical pupils emanating faint golden light!
"Was it his ability?"
Dragon's Might was brief,
but it caused over twenty people to faint.
"Ma Wang, finish those people off!"
Wang Luo said.
"Hee-hee~~~"
Ma Wang was furious.
The moment the opponents raised their guns, it had almost peed itself in fear!
Although bullets could not kill it instantly, they would certainly hurt if they hit.
If it returned injured,
wouldn't it be looked down upon by the goddess again?
So Ma Wang decisively dealt with those who were preparing to shoot it!
"They don't intend to kill us?"
Qi Lianyun immediately realized that although this man and horse were ruthless, they did not intend to kill indiscriminately!
"Everyone, do not make any rash moves!"
He yelled at everyone.
Wang Luo nodded,
and looked at Qi Lianyun, saying, "As expected of an SS-class Awakened!"
"Frankly, with your current strength, it will be difficult to survive long in this apocalypse. I will show you a path to survival, there's a large gathering of survivors there..."
Wang Luo told him the location of the villa district.
After all, he was an SS-class Awakened,
a powerful combatant!
And he was a wood-element user, capable of both fighting and healing!
Like Huangpu Yu's "Blue Silver Entanglement," it was quite practical!
Watching the man and horse leave,
Qi Lianyun realized his back was soaked.
"What exactly was that ability? A mere glance from his eyes could force me to my knees!"
...
On the other side,
Wang Luo, riding on Ma Wang's back,
said, "My control over Dragon's Might is still not that proficient!"
His original intention was only to stun those who held guns,
but he couldn't control the range and it enveloped everyone!
However, he hadn't used his full power, otherwise, they would all have fainted, including the SS-class Qi Lianyun!
Dragon's Might was an S-class esoteric art under a divine-level ability, its power was naturally immense!
"It seems I need to practice more when I have the chance!"
Then he had Ma Wang head towards another construction site.
There were many construction-related materials to collect,
not just cement and rebar.
Various machines needed to be collected,
otherwise, building houses in the future would be a troublesome affair.
For the next period, he was busy collecting various construction materials.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for surviving in the apocalypse for another month. Reward: SSS-class esoteric art "Ten Thousand Thunders"!]
[Ding! Please host continue to survive in the apocalypse for three months. S-class wind-element ability will be upgraded to SSS-class!]
Two consecutive sounds,
filled Wang Luo with joy.
"Awesome!"
Wang Luo exclaimed.
This time, the mission reward was the upgrade of his S-class wind-element ability to SSS-class!
"This means that my future E-class lightning-element ability also has the potential to be upgraded to SSS-class!"
He felt excited just thinking about it.
If SSS-class lightning-element ability was paired with SSS-class Ten Thousand Thunders esoteric art, what would be the effect!
At least, as far as he knew,
even for Awakened of S-class and above, the probability of comprehending S-class and above esoteric arts was very low!
Just like in his previous life,
he had only comprehended one S-class esoteric art, "Great Wind Disaster."
Wang Luo willed it,
and his personal attribute panel appeared.
